 Long-Term Goal

 Class blogs- keeping them up, having them blog at least once a week on any subject.
 Getting edmodo set up for all my classes. To use as a way for students to turn in assignment, ask for homework help, and communication with them and classmates.

 An elective for 6th, 7th, and 8th to create Prezi presentations.
 A shutterfly site for my 8th grade class. They can download pictures from their spring D.C. trip, and I will create a photo album for them to purchase from the photos I receive.
Melanie
 To have my class experience a blog for the first time! I want to have this done by mid January and incorporate it into their Astro Camp experience.

Liz

 Work on incorporating edmodo. I really want to use it for assignments, quizzes, and polls.
Chris
 use StoryBird with my class
 A class mascot and have the kids take turns bringing him home for the weekend and then blogging about the adventures he had over the weekend. I bought a Build a Bear stuffed dog and just need to get him home with a student this weekend! I would also like to move my entire class webpage from TeacherWeb over to my Shutterfly class page. I would also like my students to write their own version of Snowmen at Christmas and then put that into a Voicethread or something similar and have the kids narrate their page.
Robyn
 Implement storybird in the computer lab.
 A collaborative project with my class on our upcoming field trips to Knott's or PMMC.
